Do you think it would be a good idea at some point to have a gay bachelor. No. Why not. Just because I respect them but honestly I don't think it's a good example for kids who watch that on TV. Reporter: The 32-year-old single father and former soccer went even further during the interview Friday. But they are more pervert in a sense. And to me the show would be too strong, too hard to watch on TV. Reporter: Over the weekend Juan Pablo called glad to apologize. He called me and said he was very sorry. He says he knows a lot of lgbt parents and truly did not mean to say what he said.
